    Man United have joined European rivals Real Madrid and Barcelona in the hunt for Mexican wonderkid Gilberto Mora, according to a latest report by Mundo Deportivo.

    The 16-year-old, who is also wanted by Premier League rivals Man City and Arsenal, is currently representing Mexico at the U20 World Cup in Chile and, at the time of writing, he is the joint-top goalscorer at the tournament.

    Mora is currently valued at £3.8m by Transfermarkt, though that number is only expected to grow as the player continues impress on the domestic and international stage.

    Should Man United – or one of the other European clubs – manage to strike a deal for the player, the end transfer is expected to generate far more money than the aforementioned estimated value. This is simply down to the amount of interest in the teenager – something that Club Tijuana will want to exploit as they look to cash in on their star prospect.

    Chelsea are ready to table a January transfer window bid of £30m for Barcelona youngster Marc Casado, according to the Daily Briefing.

    Enzo Maresca and his team have identified the player as a ‘perfect fit’ for their system, with the Club World Cup winners looking to strengthen their squad for the second half of the season.

    Chelsea were previously interested in the player and reports suggest that the Blues did make an offer, only to be knocked back by the Spanish giants.

    Maresca’s men are set to have another go, though they are set to face competition from a host of domestic and international rivals, including Arsenal, Atletico Madrid, West Ham, Wolverhampton and Marseille.

    New West Ham boss Nuno Espirito Santo wants the club to make a January move for Fulham’s Adama Traore, according to Football Insider.

    Santo, who replaced Graham Potter as manager at the London Stadium, is keen to stamp his own mark on the team, though he may need a few January signings in order to do that.

    The report suggests the Irons are already drawing up a shortlist of potential targets, with Traore being one of the top names on there.

    Santo tried to sign the player for Nottingham Forest over the summer, though the move never materialised. However, with the 29-year-old out of contract at the end of the season, Fulham may be interested in getting some value out of him before he is allowed to leave for free.
